Doren,

An MP3 player is light years from a cell phone. I don't see how Apple can go at it alone, to design and build a cell phone, without the involvement of some of the biggies like Samsung, Nokia, Ericsson, or Motorola. It's a lot easier to add MP3 capabilities to a cell phone than to take an iPod and slap in a cell phone. From a pure usage level, a totally touch sensitive screen with no physical buttons will make it very hard to juggle things like dialing when doing something else. The room for error in selecting the wrong number or function to activate will give people migraines or cause accidents if driving.
